First time on /fit/ and I wanted to get your opinion on body weight exercises.

I used to do a lot of weights at the gym and avoided cardio like the plague. After a long break - in which I had two kids - I decided to loose some weight and get fit again but didn't have the time to duck off to a gym so instead opted to walk the block a few times (4km) on a daily basis with the kids in a pram and then do some body weight movements on the back deck after they were in bed.

I only use a 10kg dumbbell for a handful of exercises; everything else is strictly body weight. I'm really enjoying it and want to work towards more of a ripped body than a bulky one.

Pic related. This is me after one month of this daily routine and loosing 5.5kg.

muscle memory is magic isn't it?

I'd say lose the obliques if you want to look more toned

If you just want to be ripped, you can get there with bodyweight training, but diet is far more important than whatever type of exercise you're doing. You can't get ripped without eating the right amount of stuff.

You will never look big or strong in clothes with bodyweight only. But if that isn't your goal, then it doesn't matter.
